This house was fantastic! Very clean and so comfortable! Everything we needed was there. Loved the property and the house! Highly recommend! Great weekend away!
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. If you're looking for peace & quiet this is definitely the place to stay. The home was located on the resort so it was close enough to all of the amenities on the property but on the outskirts enough to give you the peace and quiet that you're looking for when you go on vacation. The house was equipped with everything we needed from pots & pans, gas grill, screened in porch to comfortable sitting areas for family gatherings. Downtown Galena was only ten minutes away so there was always something to do and places to go nearby. We would definitely recommend this home to anyone else who's looking for a beautiful location with all of the comforts of home.
We enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. It was a quiet and beautiful neighborhood. We also enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after a long day of shopping.
The house was exactly as pictured. Clean, spacious and the hot tub was AMAZING!! There isn’t much around, so stock up on food before checking in. Otherwise we had a excellent stay. The owners club was a hit and easy to check in to. The pool was heated and the shaded area was great. We plan to visit this propetty again.
The house was perfect for our 3 couples. Plenty of room for all of us and plenty of common areas for us to spend time. Not far from downtown galena, and the owners club pool was awesome. No complaints at all. Would definitely recommend this home! Very easy to contact the manager also.
We enjoyed our stay very much. House is great and at a great location. We spent a lot of time sitting out on a porch just looking out in the woods, chatting. There’s plenty of space to do your own thing or enjoy the company. House is clean and well stocked. It is also short drive from most Galena attractions. We will definitely go back.

Okay stay
Nice layout, pretty backyard view, hot tub was great, strange smell we couldn’t get rid of, wasn’t the cleanest (cobwebs, dust and hair found in bathtub).
My Family recently stayed & enjoyed this house. Even though we had two days of solid rain. Thank goodness the hot tub was located under a covered porch. It was great sitting in the hot tub with the pouring rain very tranquil & relaxing. The bed were very comfortable, kitchen came with toaster, coffee maker (not Keurig), and blender. If you plan on cooking a lot here supplies are very basic (have had better stocked kitchen in other Vrbo rentals). Spacious and clean rental would not hesitate to rent again. Back yard with adirondack chairs to overlook quiet valley. Easy communication with host. Thank-you for the relaxing stay.
The home was very clean and orgainzed. Thank you.
I would recommend a minor minor detail. Please clean or replace the coffee pot. It took almost 1 hour to make 6 cups of coffee.
Thanks for providing a wonderful place for a moms group to relax and enjoy time away to refresh.
I recently stayed at this VRBO rental property, and it was a fantastic experience. The property was quiet, clean, and had great accommodations. The highlight for me was definitely the hot tub, which provided a relaxing escape after a day of exploring.
The furniture in the property was exceptionally comfortable, making it easy to unwind and enjoy the cozy atmosphere. However, there was one minor issue: the bed frame in the master bedroom was a bit creaky with normal use. It didn’t significantly impact my stay, but it’s worth noting.
We also took advantage of the grill to cook some delicious burgers. Unfortunately, there were no grilling utensils specifically suited for hamburgers. It would be great if the property owner could provide some appropriate tools for future guests.
While the kitchen was well stocked overall, I did notice that the knives were all quite dull and dangerous. As someone who enjoys cooking, this was a bit disappointing. A set of sharp knives would greatly enhance the culinary experience for guests.
Despite these minor issues, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this VRBO rental. The positives far outweighed any negatives, and I would happily return for another getaway. Thank you for providing a lovely space for relaxation and exploration!
Beautiful setting, perfect place to relax and unwind.
Really enjoyed all the elements of this property. This is a welcoming space perfect for six adults for a friends weekend.
The upstairs living room is tranquil and comfortable. The kitchen well designed and ready to support what ever your meal needs. The view overlooking the ravine was perfect for watching squirrels frolic from branch to branch. The upstairs primary suite is wonderful with proper bathroom with walk in shower, jacuzzi tub and dual vanities.
Downstairs you find a large family room, big screen TV and fireplace. Two more bedrooms with their own bathrooms and lower deck access to hot tube.
We loved the house, it added to the specialness of the weekend for each of our guests. On winter weekends you will stay warm and cozy. Plus you can head out into Galena Territory for a variety of potential winter activities.
Thanks for a great stay.
